WATERER’S FOR QUALITY 
Antirrhinum • Snapdragon 
HHB 
Seed should be sown either in the house from February on or in 
liotbeds from March onward. Snapdragons belong to the aristocrats 
of the garden. They appear in the most pleasing shades, are ex¬ 
tremely stately in appearance, and useful in unlimited degree, 
being fine for both bedding and cutting purposes. They are offered 
in two classes as to height, the giants growing fully 3 or more feet 
high; the semi-dwarf, about 13^ feet. The pretty flowers, which com¬ 
pletely encircle the stout stem to fully 1 to feet at the top, are 
very large and from their form their name has been derived. Seed- 
pods should never be allowed to form, and flower-stalks, after bloom¬ 
ing, should be promptly removed. Snapdragons flower continuously 
from July to frost. 
Rust-Resistant Antirrhinums 
After many years of intensive research our growers have achieved 
Rust-resistant Antirrhinums, which makes it possible to grow these 
desirable flowers in those sections where rust has been prevalent.
